An Effective Prayer

 What is an Effective Prayer? 

Topic: An Effective Prayer🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♂️

Bible Verse : James 5:16 "... The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much"

Message:  An effective prayer is not defined by duration, place or nature of a person. To make an effective prayer firstly, we have to seek god as we are. Which means we have to acknowledge and be transparent. Weather we are in sin, sickness, fear or confused open up to God as it is (Luke 18:13,14 & Mark 14:34). Secondly, we have to pray in Faith without doubting (James 1:6,7 & Mark 11:24). We should desire and expect the change. Finally, do not give up in prayer (1Thessalonians 5:17). Elijah prayed till he saw a sign for rain in a nation affected by drought (1Kings 18: 43,44). We get wearied when there is delay or when we did not receive our expected answer but learn to trust on God's perfect time and Will which is of great wisdom from God (Job 42:3 & Isaiah 55:8,9). God bless you

Prayer: Dear Lord break every barrier to make an effective prayer. Continue to speak with us. In Jesus name Amen

Truth 4 the Week - Deliverance from Fear of Death

Topic:  Deliverance from Fear of death

Bible Verse : 1 Corinthians 15:55 "O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?”

 Message : Only Jesus Christ who came into this world, died for us on the cross, buried & rose again the 3rd day can deliver us from fear of death (Revelation 1:18). How? Firstly, people who have accepted Jesus as their personal Saviour have committed their lives to Jesus. Therefore until  has  God's purpose is accomplished in their lives death cannot touch them (Galatians 2:20, John 7:30 & Job 2:6). Secondly, for those who live in Christ death is an advantage because of the life in Heaven where they rejoice and are away from all worldly warfare & pains (Philippians 1:21 & Psalms 84:4). Finally, we have to pray for long life of everyone so that each one gets an opportunity to accept Jesus Christ to reach Heaven & for those who serve Christ as they are a blessing to everyone in world and they build God's Kingdom. God bless you

 Prayer :  Dear Lord deliver us and our nation from fear of death. Continue to speak with us. In Jesus name Amen
